Author: Azalais Title: In the Wild Characters: Bilbo, Aragorn Source: LoTR Rating: G Disclaimer: Middle-earth belongs to Tolkien and his heirs: I wander there for fun, not profit
You know, I'm not sure that I've ever read a first meeting between Aragorn and Bilbo that didn't take place in Rivendell. Great use of that line to have them come across each other earlier, and I love the way you've used the prompt word: great description!
I couldn't remember whether Bilbo and Aragorn could have overlapped at this stage; in general Aragorn's meant to be journeying in the south and east of M-E, but as HASA Resources points out, he can't have been far away at this particular point, because Gandalf gets word to him about Gollum and they start the search. So I thought I could get away with it. (And as for "bequeath", I am never knowingly under-prompted ;-) - it gets shoehorned in somehow!)
